Post I have no idea
Late last night I finally get my nether portal up and going. I stock up with provisions: pick, shovel, torches, 4 stacks of cobblestone for my adventure to find glowstone. Last check, my armor and I step through. IMMEDIATELY!!! arrrrrrrrrrrrrGGGHHHHH!!! there is a creeper face in the portal on the other side and a zombie is beating the hell out of me. I hear the boom through the purple haze of the portal noise and then its all quite. I lived! but now I am looking at two portals that are standing next to each other with their fires unlit and one is shattered. It's going to need 4 obsidian to fix that. I didnt think creeper explosions could take out obsidian.
Knowing that I was the cause of the explosion. I throw off all the gear I have, try to make the area some what safe with the cobblestone I have then jump to my death. When I awake next to my bed. I quickly get the extra obsidian I have and some more cobble stone along with a broken iron pick and some flint and steel.
When I step through my portal the next time there is no second portal. There is no cobblestone set down from me previously and my portal is in a cavern that is unlit. To top that off, my portal is undamaged and still lit. I have no idea where those two other portals are. No, I didnt have death waypoint on. I do now.

Obsidian is nerfed with IC2 installed to keep people from cheaply blast-proofing nuclear reactors.

No idea what happened with the vanishing portal, though. That's funky.

were they speedy creepers? Have you explored the whole area (3x3 chunks) around the portal to see if maybe it was just moved away? Typically in an event like this the portal spawns like 10-20 blocks away. but I think it can go further.

put a torch down in all open spaces to stop spawn of anythings, that or just live underground.
